Part by part
Heating and cooling coils

Internal casing and panels
Loose or damaged linings inside a unit can break up into the airstream. We note any we find in the report.
About our AHU cleaning in Stoke D'Abernon
If the units serving a building in Stoke D'Abernon have only had filter changes for years, there may be dirt on the coils, fan and casing that nobody has looked at. A full AHU clean takes in the whole unit. The work covers internal panels, dampers and louvres and drain trays, and common reasons people get in touch are units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover and odours coming through the supply air.
Work in a small place like Stoke D'Abernon starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What AHU cleaning looks like in Stoke D'Abernon
There are about 7 schools, colleges and universities and about 8 hospitals, care homes and childcare premises on the FSA’s food hygiene register within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Stoke D'Abernon. Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. Epsom Cottage Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 3.9 miles east of Stoke D'Abernon. Healthcare buildings depend on clean supply and extract ventilation, and the same applies to surgeries, clinics and care homes. Stoke D'Abernon, about 18 miles from central London, is within our usual area. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.
Wherever a school like Parkside School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time. If you manage offices or shops near Cobham & Stoke Dabernon station, their ventilation can be inspected and cleaned out of hours.

What happens on the day

The visit itself takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Stoke D'Abernon.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- The area is protected and the unit made safe.

Related advice
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Don’t store bins or materials near the intake
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
- Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
Restart the unit with your site team or maintenance contractor once we have finished. Keep an eye on the condensate drain over the next few days to make sure it stays clear.
Make the drain tray part of every maintenance visit. A drain that is cleared early never gets to the slime stage.
Common problems we fix in Stoke D'Abernon
Cooling coils create condensation, and that water has to go somewhere. If the drain tray outlet blocks or the tray does not fall properly, water stands in it, and slime and smells soon follow.
Clients normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Dirty fans and fan housings
- Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays
- Plant that needs cleaning after a refit
- Air handling units with blocked filters
Hospitals such as Epsom Cottage Hospital (about 3.9 miles east) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Stoke D'Abernon are no different.

What a clean won’t put right
We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Damaged coils beyond cleaning
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
- A system that is undersized for the building

FAQs for Stoke D'Abernon
Can the work in Stoke D'Abernon be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Is Stoke D'Abernon within the area you cover?
Yes, Stoke D'Abernon is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Do you clean the ductwork as well?
Yes. We reach the ducts through access panels, with anything inaccessible recorded, with new panels fitted where necessary.
What is TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
What do you do to protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
How much does AHU cleaning cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
